FROM MY WORLD

7 KM Funeral For My Golden Goose

I was on the kitchen floor that night, phone quiet, because AWeber had just shut my account, and my 100,000-person list vanished. I sat there for two hours and thought my life was over, which is a dramatic thing to admit out loud, but it’s true.

I ran seven kilometers that evening out of sheer panic and anger, which was five kilometers more than I’d ever run. When I came back, I did what anyone would do: I played video games and felt sorry for myself for a few days. Then my team woke me up: they’d found a backup from months before — 60,000 people — and an Israeli provider agreed to import it. So the worst felt slightly less fatal.

Here’s the messy turn: email income almost didn’t fall. My $3,000-per-mail “magic” became $1,000–$1,500 for a while, but we kept moving. The tech team built a traffic tool that added an extra 300 clicks a day, which later hit 1,000 clicks, and because my EPC stayed steady, revenue climbed. A disaster turned into double the business because we didn’t stop.

The truth is simple and ugly: you’ll blow something you thought permanent, and it won’t kill you. Because you treat setbacks as temporary and go looking for what changes, not who to blame, you get leverage where others see loss. That moment on the floor taught me to obsess less about perfection and more about systems that replace single points of failure.

A lost golden goose only stays lost if you give up.

MINDSET MAKEOVER

Why This “Big Rock” Idea Should Make Your Blood Boil

Most people think they need more motivation. Cute. The real problem is that your fingers have a busier social life than you do. They’re opening tabs, grabbing snacks, scrolling garbage — all before you even ask them. And every one of those “innocent” habits drains the same willpower you need to build a business.

Here’s proof. I once blocked Ninegag, and for ten full days, my hands kept typing “9, Enter” like they were possessed. I’d open a new tab to work, and my fingers would be like, “Nah, memes.” That’s how deep these loops run. 

So when someone tells me they’re “too tired” to work at night, I don’t judge. I just know they’ve spent the whole day making Olympic-level micro-decisions: sugar or carbs, dopamine or doomscrolling, one more clip or bed. By 8 PM, their decision-making muscle looks like overcooked spaghetti.

Now, the truth. You don’t fix procrastination with inspiration. You fix it by cutting off the junk that hijacks you before lunch. Watch what you eat. Kill the infinite scroll. Do your business work first thing, before your brain wakes up and starts arguing with you.

Today, block one website that steals your soul and keep it blocked for 72 hours. If your fingers rebel, good — that means we finally found the problem.

FOR YOUR LISTENING PLEASURE

The Negotiator Who Hates “Fair” with Chris Voss

Chris Voss didn’t ease into the episode — he blew it open by saying negotiations aren’t logical at all, which explains why “pitching benefits” rarely moves anyone. The guy spent 24 years talking kidnappers out of killing people, so when he says emotion beats logic every time, I listen. 

One moment that hit me hard was his take on the “F-word”: fair. He calls it a weapon people use when they’re frustrated, and once you hear him explain it, you’ll never un-hear it.

Now, why should you care? Because most of you are trying to sell to humans, not robots, and humans change only when they’re avoiding a loss. Voss shows exactly how to get prospects talking, not hiding behind fake “yeses.” 

This episode teaches you how to hear the truth you’ve been missing.

CURATED READS

Ogilvy on Advertising by David Ogilvy

If you run an online business and you haven’t read Ogilvy on Advertising, you’re basically showing up to a gunfight with a pool noodle.

David Ogilvy is the godfather of persuasive advertising — the guy modern marketers quietly copy while pretending they “invented a new framework.” This book is a masterclass in what actually makes people buy: human psychology, attention, emotion, and the kind of copy that moves wallets.

Ogilvy speaks in principles, not trends. His methods work in email, funnels, ads, and even the random sales page you wrote at 2 AM after an energy drink. If you want to write words that consistently turn into money, this is the blueprint.

RIDDLE ME THIS

Can You Crack The Code?

You can price me, chase me, but never truly buy;
I multiply effort when aligned — and kill it when split.

What am I?

Think you've cracked the code? Reply to this email with your guess, and see if you're right!

I can be earned in drip feeds or lost in one blast.
I smooth the way to sales or vanish too fast.
You trade me often, but I’m not a coin
What am I that makes a stranger become joined?

The answer is: Trust.
